Hi @NestleUSA@Nestle@NestleCare Do you ship infant formula to Houston? I am specifically interested in Nan Supreme pro 1. I cannot give it in any store here in Texas. Thanks!!
@Iberia Aún no han dado solución a la gente del vuelo cancelado de Niza de las 18.45h. Llevan 5 horas en el aeropuerto sin ninguna información. Un hotel, un vuelo nuevo algo que haga a la gente estar más tranquila. Este es el trato que dan a sus clientes? #iberia#niza
@Miguel_GonGar@Iberia Mis padres están en ese vuelo y aún no saben donde van a dormir @Iberia ¿no pueden dar una solución? Les cancelan el vuelo y nadie les ayuda a gestionar un vuelo nuevo o al menos un hotel para que descansen #iberia#vuelocancelado
Great writing.
A description of Standard Oil before their monopoly was broken:
“The Standard Oil Company was not, of course, a nation, but it had enough of the attributes of one. It was a government of men, not laws, ruled by an oligarchy of forty-one major stockholders.
The domain was divided into territories managed by men whose powers exceeded those of state governors.
Its contracts resembled treaties.
It had its own espionage system, its own secret codes.
Its employees worked to promote the fortunes of the ruling oligarchy, and their loyalty to the company approached that of citizens to a country.
When its president spoke, he sounded like the leader of a nation.
In theory, the laws of America denied Standard sovereignty.
In practice, Standard ruled unchecked.
State governments could harass it, but Standard continued to do exactly what it wished.
It financed projects out of its earnings and thereby deprived banks of any say in its operations.
In 1882 God alone, so far as John D. Rockefeller was concerned, had the power to restrain the Standard Oil Company."
From this excellent biography of Rockefeller (episode 254)
